'Captain Marvel' Now Has Most Fandango Advance Ticket Sales Since 'Avengers: Infinity War'

With Captain Marvel heading to theaters this weekend, it looks like Marvel Studios won't have to spend any time worrying about the commercial success of the Brie Larson-starring flick. The film is now Fandango's best-selling pre-release movie since Avengers: Infinity War.

Though Fandango doesn't release exact numbers, the news should be welcome to fans of Carol Danvers and company. With Captain Marvel putting up solid pre-sale numbers, it's a good sign for Marvel fans that the film is outperforming box office darlings of the last year like Venom and Aquaman. Both of those flicks performed admirably overseas, hauling in $855 million and $1.1 billion, respectively.

Leading up to the movie's debut, it's been a hot topic as fans initially launched an attack to "review-bomb" the film's pre-release ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. The review aggregator eventually disabled the feature, only letting people review the movie after it's been released — though the site claims the situation didn't have any impact on their decision to remove the "Want To See" rating.
